lion. Das. A.GroTeaoT, Deputy Auditor for the War Department, in ft letter
wrlttta frcra WauMcgton, D.C,tays:
"Allow me to express my gratitude to you tor the benefit derived
from one bottle of Peruna. One week has brought wonderful
changes and I am now as well as ever. Besides being one of the
very best spring tonics It Is ea excellent catarrh remedy." Very
respectfully, Dan. A. Grosvenor.
Ucs. J eta Willi , Cecity ConirlssioEtr of 17 West Second street, Dulatb,
Minn, cays the following in regard to
Peruna: "As a remedy for catarrh lean
cheerfully recommend Peruna. I know
what It is to suffer from that terrible
disease and If eel that it is my duty to
speak a good word for the tonic that
brought me immediate relief. Perana
cured me of a bad case of catarrh and I
know it will cure any other sufferer
from that disease."
Miss Mattie L. Guild, President Illi
nois Young People's Christian Temper
ance Union, in a recent letter from Chi
cago, 111., says:
"I doubt if Peruna has a rival in ail
the remedies recommended to-day for
catarrh of the system. A remedy that
will cure catarh of the stomach will
cure the same condition of the mucous
membrane anywhere. I have found it
the best remedy I have ever tried tor
catarrh, and believing it worthy my
endorsement I gladly accord it. "
Mrs. Elmer Fleming, orator of Reser-
roir Council No. 168, Northwestern Le
gion of Honor, of Minneapolis, Minn.,
write b from 2535 Polk street, N.E.: ,
"I have been
Mrs. Elmer Fleming,
Minneapolis, Minn.
troubled all my
life with catarrh
in my head. I
took Peruna for
about three
months, and now
think I am per
manently cured.
I believe that for
catarrh in all its
forms Peruna is
the medicine of
the age. It cures
when all other remedies fail. I can
heartily recommend Peruna as a ca
tarrh remedy"
The spring is the time to treat ca
tarrh. Cold, wet winter weather often
retards a cure of catarrh. If a course of
Puruna is taken during the early spring
months the cure will le prompt and
permanent. There can be no failures if
Pernna is takenintelligently during the
favorable weather of spring. ,
As a systemic catarrh remedy Peruna
eradicates catarrh from the system
wherever it may be located. It cures ca
tarrh of the stomach or bowels with the
samecertainty as catarrh of the head.
For a free book containing valuable
advice on the causes and treatment of
catarrh, address The Peruna Medicine
Co., Columbus, Ohio.

Sharp Advertising
Steamship companies and railroad
corporations are the sharpest advertis
ers on earth and they ge t the most of
it free. The steamship lines and rail
reads centering at Tacoma got the fol
lowing inserted in every daily paper
printed in the United States last weelk
fre of cost and The Independent, just
to be in tbe fashion, is going to give
them the benefit of its large circula
tion. The ad. read as follows:
"Tacoma, Wash.. April 26. Men
who have just arrived from Dawson
say a second strike has been made in
tbe marvelous Eldorado Creek district
in Alaska. '
"Two men who discovered the spot
washed out $5,000 the first day. Pans
of dirt taken from the streak yield as
high as $50 each, and not a bucket of
the gravel comes to the surface that
does not contain nuggets running all
the way from a quarter of an ounce to
an ounce in weight, pure gold.
"The messengers say that the strike
has created the wildest excitement all
along Eldorado, and that miners are
Cocking to the neighborhood by the
thousands.
If the steamships and railroads don't
get a million or two out of that, then
there is nothing In advertising. They
have pursued that kind of advertising
for the last five years anl have always
netted Immense returns from it. This
Is the time of year that they always
insert them.
THE STORAGE BATTERY
win
Electricity b Shipped
Con b try X4k Ordinary Goods T
Exhibited at Buffalo
Electrical science has become very
much excited over the fact that Tho
mas A. Edison has invented a storage
battery which it Is said is destined to
rank very high in the long list of val
uable Inventions which this wonderful
man has given to the world.
It is possible that the new storage
battery will be accepted as . the very
greatest invention of this Inventive
genius, and the importance of this Is
best understood when it is considered
that Edison has taken out patents on
more than 700 Inventions, Included In
which number are the phonograph, the
quadruples, a device for sending four
messages at once over a telegraph wire
and the low resistance dynamo for
electric lighting.
It was Edison who created the in
candescent lighting system by which
the grounds of the Pan-American ex
position are Illuminated.
Such great inventions as these have
naturally placed the name of Edison
on the highest rung of the ladder of
fame; but despite his multiplicity of
Invention, during the nineteenth cen
tury, he greets the twentieth century
and the Pan-American exposition with
an invention which an authority con
nected with the United States patent
cSce, who Is conversant with the bat
tery, says, next to the telephone, is the
most important of the nineteenth cen
tury. This Is indeed a statement which
rightfully leads the public to expect
that Edison's new storage battery will
revolutionize the storage battery con
struction of the period, and carry the
world forward many material points
from the darkness In which his field
has hitherto been encompassed.
It was at the Centennial exhibition
la Philadelphia that the telephone was
first shown to the public, and It will
be at the Pan-American exposition
that the public will get its first
glimpse of this new and great storage
battery of Edison's.
This feature alone will possess un
usual Interest for every person who
has any connection with the electrical
and scientific fields. It will interest
the world because the battery promises
to become exceedingly valuable in the
development of various lines of indus
try, the growth of which has been re
tarded by the lack of a device similar
to this new battery. Especially will
it be of the highest importance to the
automobile industry, where a battery
lighter than those at present in use
is much needed.
Edison's new battery is expected to
be of only half the weight -of the present-day
batteries, and an important
statement is that it will not be a lead
accumulator. A complete description
of the battery is not yet obtainable
from the fact that the American pat
ents have not yet been issued. How
ever, they soon will be, and then the
world will know more about the won
derful storage battery to be exhibited
at the Pan-American exposition.
The prediction was made before the
national electric light association, at
one of their Niagara meetings, that the
time would come when the electrical
energy of the Falls of Niagara would
be shipped throughout the country by
the carload as a result of the perfec
tion of the storage battery. It is not
known whether Edison's laU- inven
tion brings us to a realization of this
promise.; but when it is stated that as
an invention the battery ranks next to
the telephone in the list of Important
inventions of the nineteenth century,
it may be imagined that it will demon
strate Its full value very soon after
reaching the market.
The exhibit of the Edison Manufac
turing company of Orange, N. J., will
be located in section D, opposite the
General Electric company's exhibit, in
the Electricity building. In addition
to the storage battery laboratory prod
ucts of a new and important nature
will be for the first time exhibited.
Several of these will be of a surprising
nature, even to minds rich in electri
cal knowledge. They will be entirely
new, and if the fame of Edison can be
Intensified beyond the high point he
has attained, it may be set down as a
fact that the Edison exhibit at the
Pan-American exposition -will do it.
Thomas A. Edison, who will thus do
so much to entertain and instruct visi
tors to the Pan-American exposition,
will be represented at the exposition
by Mr. W. H. Markgraf, manager of
Edison's exhibit department.

REPUBLICAN IOWA
It Is Not tbe Land of the Blest Bank
ruptcy Stares 60 Per Cent of the Bus
iness Men In the Face
The following article from the pen
of an Iowa clergyman shows that the
writer is a keen and accurate observer.
He says that hp was born In Iowa, edu
cated in its common schools and state
university and since graduation has
been located in various Iowa towns as
a Congregational clergyman. It is in
reply to, the numerous tramp stories
which have been appearing in various
plutocratic magazines. Any man who
has been a disinterested and close ob
server will at once acknowledge the
truthfulness of his descriptions. He
says:
"It is true that there Is plenty of
work in Iowa just now. The Iowa
farmer yells long and loud for help for
a few weeks in the spring. He waxes
wroth at the tramp who is looking for
work and hoping he won't find it, and
the laborer In the city who will not
leave the city for the country. But his
anxiety begins to cease as soon as corn
is laid by and does not begin until
harvest time is here. Then again there
is a great demand for laborers, but
you will notice it is a demand lasting
only six or eight weeks. The average
farmer farms with machinery, not
men. He uses horses, not hands. He
wants usually one steady laborer for
the. year round. All the rest of the
time he has no use for help save In the
busy season of spring and fall.
"What Is there, anyway, In the con
ditions of farm labor in Iowa to tempt
a self-respecting man to leave the city?
Suppose he does find a permanent sit
uation? It means to work about four
teen hours a day in a slavish , and ex
hausting way. If he be a single man it
means the worst bedroom in the house
and get up at 4:30 or 5 o'clock to do a
half's day's work before breakfast and
finish the day's work by lantern light
at night. ' The pay is from $18 to $25 a
month, or less than a dollar a day and
board. If he be a married man It means
from $25 to $35 a month without
board. - The writer has known men to
work by the year for $300, board them
selves, and also furnish a team which
they fed and cared for;
"The fact of the matter is that Iowa
farmers are putting their lands into
pasture, so they do not need this extra
help, or are moving to the towns and
renting their land to their sons or to
strangers. Another thing, the chance
for the farm hand to become a land
bwner is very poor. In the neighbor
hood where the writer was born and
raised most of - the old farmers began
a6"farm hands; but within the last five
years very few have succeeded in ac
quiring land, and these few ' only
through .sacrifice; which has wrecked
their physical constitutions and robbed
them of all luxuries and many necessi
ties of life for many years. Another,
thing, the average, Iowa town is a de
lusion and a. snare. It has a few good
stores and many cheap business houses
which are constantly on the verge of
ruin. Bankruptcy stares 60 per cent
of the Iowa business firms in the face
every day in the year. Every town of
a thousand people and even less has
its department 3tore, and the sharp
practices employed to catch trade are
as sharp and-cruel as can be found in
the city.
"The land question in Iowa is the
absorbing question. Under our present
system we are becoming a state of in
dependent, and rich landlords and de
pendent and homeless . tenants and
workers. If present tendencies con
tinue in Iowa we will see as fierce con
trasts here as can be found in New
York or London. Notwithstanding the
self-satisfied optimism of Mr. Wycoff,
the . writer humbly ventures to insist
that the labor problem" of America
cannot be settled by getting the toilers
out of the cities for the six or eight
weeks work spring and fall which
Iowa farmers want.

Pastor of Congregational Church.

THE LANDS OF THE BLEST
Where They Keep Snakes In Plaoe of Cats,
Lizards Crawl Over the Beds and
Ants are Everywhere
The beautiful isles of the sea for
which we have shed so much blbood
and spent so much 'money are fre
quently described by soldiers and so
journers of the male sex but it is sel
dom that we get the opinion of a wom
an on the subject. Here is what one
of them who hag resided there more
than a year has to say about house
keeping in Luzon;
"Imagine keeping a snake in the
house to fill a cat's duties. That is
what they do in Manila," says an American-
woman who has just returned
from spending a year in the Philip
pines with her journalist husband.
"The first night I spent in our own
home was hot and smothering, so I lay
wide awake, hoping for a breeze. Sud
dently I heard a strange noise over
head. Manila houses are built of bam
boo and are about as substantial as a
bandbox, so one hears every rustle. I
had listened to the scamper of a rat
overhead, then came a queer noise like
a stealthy slide. The rat gave a shriek
of agony. I could hear the lash of the
snake's tail and a terrible scrimmage
all over the thin floor. They seemed
to be rolling over each other and the
snake was swallowing the rat. I heard
it as distinctly as if I could see it. I
shrieked louder than the rat had done,
and in a moment every China boy in
our establishment was in my. room to
see what had happened. Before I left
Manila I grew as accustomed to find
ing a house snake on my floor as if it
had been a cat. The house pests of the
Philippines drive an American woman
to distraction." Lizards are everywhere;
you find them in- your bed, in the
dishes inthe pantry, clinging to your
gowns or napping in your bureau
drawers. Some are bigger than the
chameleons we used to pet; others are
a foot long. Ants of every size and
sort simply inhabit everything you
own. Every good housekeeper in Ma
nila keeps the feet of her dining table
standing in pots of oil. If you did not
take that precaution one would be eat
ing ants In every dish served. I have
tasted them and I can assure you their
flavor is not nice." J.
Kansas Populists
The Kansas papers are all discussing
the question of what the populists of
that state shall do. The recent republi
can legislature passed the most infer
nal ballot law ever concocted by a set
of political boodlers. No man's name
can appear on the ticket more than
once and no party can adopt a name
of more than one word. It would have
been just as proper to have passed law
that no name of any man should ap
pear upon the ticket who had more'
than one Christian name. In discuss
ing this question, the Hutchison Ga
zette says: ' '
"The democratic party, nationally,
is still on probation with practically
all the populists. So far it has lived a
good, consistent life, and followed the
straight and narrow path as 'with a
pure heart. But struggle with the evil
forces is rankling within its breast and
it is by no means impossible that the
next national convention might be so
packed with trust funds as to turn the
party back to its flesh pots and its
vomit. Populists should and will pre
serve their own organization till after
this conflict is over. However, there is
no danger of the defection of the demo
crats of Kansas. They are as one with
us on nearly all our measures and are
getting closer to us on theories. There,
is no excuse for a division of the forces
in our local, campaigns, simply because,
the republicans have planned and ar
ranged for such a program. Radical
expressions of mid-road populists and
straightout democrats should be dis
couraged. When the time comes for
nominations we believe the conviction
will gently settle down over both par
ties that the way to keep our prin
ciples alive and the agitation working
will be to nominate in precisely the
same way we have been doing, get to
gether in a convention and ratify and
certify the nominees as the "People's
Ticket." As there will be no national
campaign till after the thing will be
fought out in the next democratic na
tional convention, and the campaigns
will be only local in character, the
democrats ought to be willing to con
cede enough to give up their party
name on the ballot, if the populists do
the same. ' : ,- - .

In last week's Commoner, Mr. Bryan,
after quoting from an article in the
Springfield Republican, . cays:
"It is only fair that the readers of
the Commoner should know what I am
'up to,' and if they will pardon me for
being a little bit personal I will tell
them. I have twice received at the
hands of my party the highest honor it
can bestow, and twice has my nomina
tion been indorsed by our allies, the
populists and silver republicans. The
first npmination came from the dele
gates In." attendance upon the three
conventions, the second nomination
came directly from the voters of the
three parties. These honors were be
stowed, not because of personal merit,
or as a personal compliment, but be
cause of my advocacy of democratic
principles. I still believe in those prin
ciples, and expect to advocate them
during the remainder of my life. New
issues will arise from time to time,
but the principles set forth in the Chi
cago platform and In the Kansas City
platform are fundamental, and can be
applied to all questions.
"I am not planning for another pres
idential nomination if I were I would
not be editing a paper; if I ever be
come a candidate again it will be be
cause it seems necessary for the ad
vancement of the principles to which I
adhere, and that does not now seem
probable. I shall, however, take an
Interest in politics for several years
yet, if I live, and can be relied upon to
support those who as candidates advo
cate democratic principles, and who
can be trusted to enforce them if
elected.
"I have no enemies to punish. No
matter what a man may have said or
done against the ticket in 1896 or dn
1900, that man becomes my friend the
moment he accepts democratic prin
ciples. Neither have I any disposition
to reward political friends at the ex
pense of our cause. No matter what a
man may have said or done for the
ticket in 1896 or in 190(h that man be
comes an opponent ,the moment he
turns against democratic principles.
Political battles are fought, not in the
past or in the future, but in the pres
ent. The heretofore cannot be re
called, and the hereafter cannot be an
ticipated, but the now is all Important.
"I shall say whatever I think ought
to be said, and shall write whatever I
think ought to be written. This course
may not be popular, but I trust that it
will aid in the restoration of Jefferson
Ian principles.
"I shall ask no reward, because I am
not working for others entirely. As a
citizen I am interested in having a
good government under which to live;
as a father I am Interested in leaving
a good government to my children. If
a good government cn be secured it
will be reward enough for all that I or
any one else can do."
He Likes a. Fighter
Editor Independent: I have been a
constant reader of your paper for over
four years past, and have been so of
ten impressed with the streight-up,
stalwart character of your editorials
that I have thought many times to
write you my appreciation of your
fearless, independent, outspoken, man
ly utterances on all public and politi
cal questions. . j
If all reform papers ppssessed the
same fearless and independent expres-
sion In dealing with the live issues of
the day the time would be brief when
the people would have an intelligent 1
understanding of public matters and
be able to detect, on sight, the hypoc
risy and rottenness of republican lead
ers, and statements of a misguided,
subsidized republican press.
You are doing a noble work in pre
senting the truth, exposing error and
defending American principles.

The Way .They Redeemed
The Nebraska Independent had a
cartoon in its last week's issue that is
a sad commentary on the political
events of today. On the right of the.
picture was shown J. S. Bartley in
prison garb, Inside the stockade at
Lincoln; on the left was J.'H. Millard,
doffing his silk tile to the public as
he tightly clutched the U. S. senator
ship commission. Below these were the
words: "The Doings of Destiny Re
deeming Nebraska."
This is the way the -republicans are
"redeeming" Nebraska. How different
from the way the fusion forces be
gan their labors four years ago! The
republicans were as loud in their con
demnation of such methods as they are
now in their praises of the nine bolt
ers. - Send an ex-republican official to
prison? Preposterous! . But it was
done. It was not their way, alas Their
wayls to reward, not condemn.. What
a difference In the two methods Gree
ley Citizen.

" HE SHAVES GREAT MEN"
, . r ATTENDS UPON THE PRESIDENT "
"JOHN VY. DABNEY ll th. Special Barber of th. PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES AND OF
TWO SCORE OF OTHER PUBLIC MEN."
There are three sets of official tonsorlal artists in Washinglon, the Executive, the Senate, and
the House of Representatives, but the Dean of this corps is. of course, the man who attends the
President, looks after his hair and keeps the Executive scalp in good condition. Dabney is an
artist in his line. . .
" The President sits In an ordinary easy chair while Dabney spends the hour and a half usually
required to properly dress Mr. McKlnley's head and shave him.
' He enjoys the operation, chats entertainingly, and after his head has been rubbed and scalp
treated as Dabney only knows how to treat It, the President expresses his satisfaction, and goes
about his arduous duties refreshed and contented. .
" Then Dabney makes the rounds of the houses where he Is daily expected In his duties that
require him to care for the hair of ladies of innumerable official families.
"Since his appointment as the White House Barber three years ago, Dabney has had many
calls, not only from prominent officials but from many ladies, wives of Cabinet Officers, and others iu
Congressional and Exclusive Social Circles, whom he has attended for hair and Scalp treatment.
He has been a student of his profession and refuses to use any of the numerous so-cailed remedies
for the scalp with which the market is flooded. He uses his own Shampoos, Tonics, Depilatory,
etc., which are compounded by himself . t ,
" This secret is zealously guarded by him, but he proudly asserts that the ladies of Washington
Society whom he treats regularly and whose hair he keeps In order, commend, him for the excellence
of his work." - '
